OK, just back from the first German Chemoinformatics Conference, which I enjoyed very much. A rather interesting\nprogram, and lots of interesting posters too. You can read the programme online, and will not spend too many words on that (at least not now).\nBut what I will do is point out some interesting posters here.
\n\nOne poster was on the Molecular Query Language (MQL) by Ewgenij Proschak from Frankfurt. You can\nread more on this in the latest CDK News as it is implemented for the CDK too.\nThe opensource implementation is expected next year.
\n\nAnother interesting poster was on the use of ontologies to connect chemistry and biology.\nThis poster was by Juergen Harter from BioWisdom, a Cambridge, UK based company.
\n\nMarc Zimmermann had a poster on the chemical OCR variant, called chemical structure\nrecognition (CSR). This process converts images, for example scanned from literature, into a connectivity table. Difficult task, indeed.\nThis page contains some information about this project.
\n\nThere were other interesting posters too, so will probably report on those later too. But do feel free to leave comments to this blog post,\ndiscussing other interesting posters.
